Attention Brown Student-Athlete:

This page exists to provide you
with the information you need to complete the beginning of the year
athletic eligibility paperwork for 2014-15. All
student-athletes must complete the required forms online prior to
attending their team meeting, or before any practice.

To access the forms, click on the
following link to authenticate through Brown University and follow
the directions on that page to access the online system. You
should use Internet Explorer if you have that option. You should
not use Chrome if you can avoid it. https://webapps.brown.edu/acs/login.php

Before you start, you should have available your Brown ID number
– referred to in the ACS System as your BRU ID. This is NOT
your Banner ID number and it does NOT begin with the letter
“B”. Find your ID here.

The deadline for completing these
forms is August 20, but please do them as soon as you
have a chance as it will expedite your clearance for practice when
you return to campus.

A few other notes:

• Don't forget to begin
the process of gaining medical clearance by following the
instructions in the email sent recently by Russ Fiore
(contact russell_fiore@brown.edu if
you did not get the email or go to https://sso.brown.edu/idp/Authn/UserPassword).

• Incoming athletes
(with the exception of squash and men's crew) should all be
registered for the NCAA Eligibility Center. If you are
not, contact your coach for details.

• The summer employment form
only offers space for you to describe one job. If you had more than
one job, please tell us about the one that you consider to be your
main job. Also, you are asked to report your hourly pay rate. If
you received a stipend, please report an estimate of what you
calculate the hourly rate to be. Volunteer work/fellowships need
not be reported, however any other job should be details on the
form.

• Some forms ask for very specific details that you may not
remember or have access to. Please be as accurate as possible
and provide your best guess when necessary.

• You may view and print a form you have submitted at any
time in the future by returning to the portal and clicking the link
for forms history.

• Do not use the “change password” link in ACS
because you are authenticating through Brown University. Doing so
will change your password internally in the ACS system but have no
impact the next time you return to https://webapps.brown.edu/acs/login.php to login.

• During the season, you may be asked to return to your
portal to view and approve practice logs for your team. The
compliance office will notify you by email when it is time to
return to the portal.
